Discovery Rule:

[L]imitations begin to run when a claimant gains knowledge sufficient to put [the claimant] on inquiry.

The beginning of limitations is not postponed until the end of an additional period deemed reasonable for making the investigation. Franzen v. Deere and Co., 377 N.W.2d 660, 662 (Iowa 1985).
